Why tech companies add a specialist.

Most tech companies keep one global vendor for their largest markets. The languages between Europe and Asia are where quality slips. Dialects, right-to-left layouts and formal or informal address all need native linguists working in, or from, the markets they translate for. El Turco works alongside your global vendor on exactly those languages.

We cover Turkish, Arabic, Persian, Balkan, Eastern European and Turkic languages.

The same linguists every release
Your account keeps the same native linguists and reviewers from one release to the next, so terminology and tone stay stable.
Reviewers who know the market
Every job is translated and reviewed by different native linguists working in, or from, the target market, plus our automated QA checks.
A direct line to the team doing the work
Linguist queries go to the project manager who staffs your languages and come back as one batch, usually within the working day.
Room to grow
Start with one market. Add the next from the same team, the same glossary and the same QA steps.

Built for software release cycles.

We work inside your stack, not around it: string-level work in your TMS, placeholders and character limits respected, in-context review before release. Turnaround is agreed at scoping, with a 24-hour option for small urgent updates.

1,000

words of your live content

Free LQA of your current translations.

Send up to 1,000 words already live in one of our languages. We return an LQA scorecard with errors by category and severity, so you can compare quality before you change anything.

How the free LQA works

Connected to your CMS and CRM.

Website, marketing and CRM content reaches us through integration platforms such as Blackbird, a direct API integration or file exchange. With a connector or an API in place, it comes back translated without manual handoffs.

See the integrations
  • Integration platforms such as Blackbird for CMS and CRM connections
  • Direct API integration for continuous localization
  • File exchange where no connector exists
  • Status updates and delivery in your own tools

Supported platforms

WordPress, Shopify, Contentful, Drupal, Magento, WooCommerce, HubSpot, Salesforce, Adobe Experience Manager, Sitecore and custom APIs.

Meet the project managers

We already work with a global LSP. Why add a specialist?

Many tech companies keep one global vendor for their largest markets and add a specialist for the languages that are hardest to staff well. El Turco takes those languages, works in the same TMS as your global vendor and follows the same style guides, so your process does not change. A free LQA of your current content is a low-risk way to compare.

Can El Turco work inside Smartling, Phrase, Lokalise or Crowdin?

Yes. Our linguists work directly in your TMS with your translation memory, glossary and QA settings. We also work in Trados Studio, memoQ, XTM and Transifex. When you prefer file exchange, we run the job in our own CAT tool with your translation memory and glossary, and deliver the files in the format your pipeline expects.

How do we start a new market with El Turco?

Most tech clients start with a free pilot or a free LQA, then onboard us into their TMS for one market. Once the first releases run smoothly, the next market starts from the same team, glossary and QA steps, so adding a language does not mean onboarding a new supplier.

What should we send to start a localization project?

To start a localization project, send El Turco the source files or a sample, the target markets, the deadline and any existing glossary, style guide or translation memory. The project manager reviews the material, asks scoping questions and returns a proposal covering workflow, review steps, timeline and pricing. Requests go through the contact form.

Can one vendor handle both localization and AI training data?

Yes. El Turco runs translation, localization and AI training data under one roof, with the same native linguist network, ISO processes and security controls. A company can localize its product and collect speech or text data for its own AI features with one point of contact. Terminology then stays consistent between product content and training data.

Can El Turco take over from a previous localization vendor?

Yes. El Turco can take over or extend an existing program by importing your translation memories, glossaries and style guides into the CAT tool. The team can also work directly in your TMS. A linguistic quality assessment of existing content can be the first step, so problems from earlier work are fixed rather than carried forward into new releases.

How does El Turco report quality on a localization program?

El Turco reports quality through a second linguist review on every job and our automated QA checks. LQA reports are available on request and score issues by category and severity in one format for every language. A product team can then track quality across languages and releases and compare markets side by side.
